The trail starts from the pillar in front of the Tourist Office in Kranjska Gora. Take the Borovška Street (Borovška cesta) and pass the Hotel Larix and the Hotel Kompas. Continue on the cycling track that runs under ski tows towards Podkoren. Immediately after the ski slope where the Vitranc Cup takes place turn left onto a narrow path. Continue past the chairlift where the trail turns slightly left and passes Struge. Continue on the cross-country ski track towards meadows on the other side from where you can see a ski tow in the Planica Valley. Head towards the Curricular and Extracurricular Activities Centre; when arriving at the Centre, turn right towards ski jumps. Keep on the path, leading beside the ski jumps, and head towards an unpaved road that leads into the Tamar Valley. After several 100 metres you can either take the left or the unpaved route on the right which is closed for traffic during the day. Along the way you can admire the second source of the Sava River and a nature reserve Zelenci if you take trail No 12. In Planica you can see two ski jumps where a man jumped over 100 metres for the first time, and the biggest ski-flying hill in the world where the 200m mark was achieved as well.
